Notas

Alan Adler's own recipe, the one printed on the box. Everything the AeroPress became known for later, the inversions and the bypass water and the championship theatre, is a departure from this. It is worth brewing once to see how much of the rest you actually needed. The low temperature is deliberate and was unusual in 2005.
